This should not happen. I tested it here and the lights still turn ON just the one that is unavailable is not asked to do anything.

Hi @Blacky,
three days into the new worksweek I can say, that I don’t have any issues anymore with the dynamic lights They turned on and off as expected
Thank you for your great work

I might come to you again for questions to the night lights. But before that, I will think about it a little more
kind regards

@BastiKA84

Thanks for getting back to us… not many people do, so it’s really nice to hear it’s now working! I ended up spending around 14 to 16 hours on it, but it was worth it. Now I can replicate this into the Smart Light blueprint.

Again thanks for letting us know

I just wanted to let you know that I’ve developed a Holiday & Away Lighting blueprint that’s perfect for those times when you’re heading off on vacation or even just out for the evening.

It’s something I really recommend setting up and trying out before you actually need it. That way, you can test it, tweak it, and make sure it works exactly how you want… without the stress of setting it up last minute.

It’s not just practical, it’s also a lot of fun to play around with, especially if you enjoy tinkering with your home automations like I do. You can get creative with how your lights turn ON and OFF, link different rooms together, and build something that really fits your home and your routine.

Even if you’re not going away just yet, setting it up while you’re home gives you time to fine-tune everything and make sure it works just right. So when the time comes, you can simply flip it on and head out the door… knowing it’s all working behind the scenes.

I hope you have fun experimenting with it! And as always, I’d love to hear any feedback… whether it’s a suggestion, a bug report, or just a quick message to say it’s working well for you. Feel free to share your setups, ideas, or improvements with the community too within the actual blueprint thread, so we can all stay on topic and keep everything in one place.

Enjoy

Hi there,

i have the problem that the Ambient Control is not working for me. My intention is that the lights turn off if LUX reach 150 and turn on when LUX is 10. But nothing happens. What is my mistake?

Regards

Johannes

@johannes.hoelzle

Everything is working here. The only thing I can think of is your using a scene or a script and you haven’t enter in a toggle helper into the lights section Scenes & Scripts - Toggle Helper.

@andyblac

Hi Andy,

I have tested your YAML and I can reproduce the error log but it looks like you pushed a button for the Shelly.

PS: I am on the latest version and I did change one condition for night lights. Are you on the latest version?

Blacky

[andyblac (Andy Blackburn)]

I was on 8.0 must have missed the 8.1 update, I’ll test tonight see if still happens, and yes I turn off my Kitchen Lights via the wall switch, there are controlled by a shelly1.

update:

just tried the light and yes, it still happens of version 8.1, interesting though it only happens when it use the physical switch, if I turn on/off the Kitchen Light via HA button it does not report the error.

another thing I noticed, when using the HA Button the scene Kitchen motion Light Off actions right away when tuning off the Kitchen Light, but if I use the physical switch, it delays actioning the scene, but does action after a while.

Using physical switch:

it looks like it actions the scene after 1.5mins (aka the timeout delay), so might be intended result.

Using HA Button:

[BastiKA84]

I was looking into the logs of HA for something. And I found this very large error, which tells me, that in line 28xx something is not working, and therefore someting else is not working… But it does not mention if it is a spefic automation of mine, or if it is the blueprint itself. My guess is, that it is the blueprint.

OK, it might be the lux controlled “Arbeitslicht”. But right now, it is working. The light turn on and off and gets lighter or darker. So for me it is ok, but maybe not for the engineer behind it

@BastiKA84

Looks like when your using dynamic lighting your lux sensor is unavailable. I contemplated if I should put a default value in but then it may not be the correct value and adjust the lights

Blacky

[networkcrasher]

moving to the right thread, sorry about that

[BastiKA84]

OK, thank you. What is funny, that it the automation is working as it should.

[Krautmaster]

first of all, its the best blueprint in the web - great work!

second:
I face a odd issue that my “bypass helper” is not turned off after the selected
“Bypass Auto OFF Option”

the “Küche Blocker Helper” turns the lights on, but they stay “on” forever, same as the helper does. If i manually turn the helper off, the light goes off like it should.

I use the blueprint in a similar fashion with an option 2 blocker, so force light off - and this seem to work fine.

[GeorgeCastanza]

Blacky,

I notice the Bypass turn ON lights doesnt work with Night Lights. It seems to leave the lights at the night lights brightness. This doesnt seem to be expected behaviour, since the Bypass documentation above indicates it should work in any circumstance. Love your work.

Welcome to the community!

Thanks for your kind words.

Thanks for the screen shot that helps me. You have chosen bypass Option 1 so the auto OFF is Option A. You have selected auto OFF Option B. Please select Option A and you be good to go. See below.

When the bypass is turned ON using option 1, the automation will turn ON the normal or night lights, depending on which is active at the time.

I have tested it here again and is working.
